The Elustve Eovime. Passengers on thetrain from New Haven which was due in Berli at about 8:45 o'clock this morning werg startled when the train suddenly came ic an abrupt stop. Investigation dis- closed that the train was blocked by a balky cow which absolutely refused to leave the tracks. The incident took place near the rail- road pond. A conductor alighted from the cars and commenced to chase the bovine, The cow, however, proved to be too elusive for him and after a fruitless chase of about ten minutes the eonductor gave it up as a poor job. Hossie seemed to take things as a huge joke an devidently thought the conductor was ‘trying to tag her. Circling about several times the cow managed to get on the other side of the tracks. At this moment a frelght was seen approaching. The cow stood directly in its path and it looked as if Bossie's exstence was to come to an end. The conductor of the train ran a short dis- tance up the tracks and endeavored to fiag the freight. As there is a curve Hardware city. “The umpire will shout “play ball” at 10:80 o'clock sharp.

But Hossle fooled them all. She stood in the ‘'genter of the tracks until the freight was abolit five fet in front of her., Then with a quick movement she Jumped aside escaping by a hair's breadth. As the passenger train again com- menced its journey Bossie stood on the side of the track and wagged her tail and shook her head, as if to say: “That's the time I fooled you.” Bei-yn Congregational Church. ‘“‘Patriotism a Sacrament” {s thn subject upon which Rev, Samuel A.

Boston, July 3.—Rain-soaked ‘‘ho- boes’ who drifted into town by var- fous means found f6od and shelter awaiting them at the Morgan Mem- orial preparatory to the opening of the eastern convention of the Broth- erhood Welfare association today. J. Eads Howe, the wealthy promoter of the organization, was chosen to pre- side at the first meeting, to follow a street parade. Mr. Howe said that some of tHe delegates had been ar- rested ‘for vagrancy on thelr way to the convention. ‘““Work and peace” wWHs the general topic for discussion . at the first meeting. ment of Tail-light Law—Marino Gets Six Motorists—Williams Acts as Prosceutor—Briefs. Charles H.' Calor had his first ex- “perience as a presiding justice of the | peacd this morring and not only aid he lose the pecuniary reward whica usually accompenies such service but he separated himself from a dollar bill besides, having' neglected in fig- uring up the costs to include the fee which the law provides for recording convictions in cases of auto law viola- tions. Incidentally Mr. Calor took the opportunity to express his displeas- ure with the law which governs rear lights on machines and te declare himself not in sympatay with the movement respousible for bringing 5o many autoists into court for unin- tentional violation of the statutes. During the absence of Justice Con- dell, Mr, Calor is to attend to cases brought into court by Officer Marino, Grand Juror §. P, Williams serving as prosecutor in place of . S. Gwil- lim. Mr. Calor made his debut as justice when Carl Larson of Forestville was brought into court for driving an au- to on the highway without having a rear light burning The accused ad- mitted his guilt and was fined $1 and costs:~ The justice refused to accept a fee for disposing of the case and the accused had to pay but. $3.91, the fo- tal of the fine and, the fees of the officer and grand juror. In disposing of the case, Justice Calor declared that he is disgusted with the treatment given autoists ali over the state, particularly on tecni- cal violations of the statutes. He did not blame the officers for making the arrests but expressed the belief that law was entirely wrong. In fact was inclined to doubt if a man could be legally convicted on the tait light statute when it is apparent that he exercised ordinary care in trying to live up to it. M. O. RRyder has been recording the convictions for Justice Condell, re- ceiving 31 for each case, the fee pro- vided by law. He will also tend td the cases disposed of by Justice Calor. This morning the latter neglected to include this in calculating the costs in Larson’s case and he will have to pay it himself as a result. Larson was willing, to contribute the extra dollar after he learned of the mistake hut the justice facetiously remarked that he wouldn't change the decision of his first cage and would settle himgelf. Five Others Nabbed. Officer Marino secured the numbers of five other cars which went throngh Plainville this week without having rear lamps burning. Three of the owners appeared in court yesterday afternoon, before Justice Condell and Grand Juror Gwillim started on their vacation - trip. Al] entered pleas of guilty and were charged ths usual assessment, $2.86. The other two' will be notified to appear before Justice Calor Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock, ‘“Mother Goose Fair.” Having voted to make another ef- fort to augment the fund for a new library butlding for the town, the Woman’s cluk has. started arrange- ments for a ‘‘Mother Goose Fair” to be held on October 28 and 29. The fair will be in the Town hall on both evenings, with an afternoon session on the last day. Mrs, Edwin Hills has been made chairman of the refreshment commit- tee. As the fair will be held during the season for canning and preserving fruits and making jellies, she will be grateful for any donations of this character. Fancy work and useful articles should be contributed to Mrs. Car.l W. Jones, who will be at the head of the committee in charge of that department. Last fall the club held a country fair, which proved to be so successful, that it was decided to hold something similar this year, the ladies deciding on the ‘“‘Mother Goose Fair." They club has a fund of approximateiy $1,000 which was raised during the ‘ past two years. The members are ap- preciative of the generosity of the townspeople and they have every rea- son to believe that their efforts to in- crease the amount now on hand will be heartily supported. Their object is certainly a worthy one as a new library building is one of the town’s great needs. Church Services Sunday.

Newton, At- torney Canty of Bristol yesterday brought suit against George Hart, the local milk cealer, to recover for a bill of $9 due for corn stalks which he sold the defendant some time ago. Deputy Sheriff Norton came here dur- ing the afternoon to serve the papers but the suit was settled, Mr. Hart pay- the bill. Mr, Hart desclaimed having re- ceived a letter from the attorney sev- eral days ago In which suit was threatened unless he arranged to pay the bill. Had he known of Mr. New- ton's intention to start litigation, ho declares he would have paid up. Independence Day Observance. Plainville's Independence day cele- bration this year will probably be as nolsy as any of its predecessors, Juds- ing from the business done today by fireworks dispensers. There is no law to compel the town to have a ‘safe and sane” observance of the day and ithe indications-are that Young Amer- | ica will make as great a racket as pos- sible. The selectmen have decided to have extra police officers on duty tonight and tomorrow night ‘to prevent the celebrators from ringing church bells, e ———————————————————————— SAVINGS It is the man or woman who saves that can take advantage of the oppor- tunity as it cames‘ to them in life.
